Great video, what is the total thickness is it 15mm and does the basecoat (scratched coat) have mesh embedded in it and can you apply both coats the same day?

very neat

Whats the mix and what size beads do you use

well done MIKE and thank you for the video.

On the 2nd scrape with the ibar are you scraping it all the wayback to the beads?

Mike would HP12 stick to Aqua cement boards?

Such a lot of cleaning up to do after all the scraping. Not good to do on a windy day I bet.

Hahaha

Why mesh when going onto solid blockwork? I thought mesh was for cement board where there are joints!! You don't mesh sand and cement render which is what I would have done on solid blockwork 🤔

what sized beads ya working to here

hi mike is there a reason why the second half didnt have mesh ?

Hello Mike where can i buy this Darby from please? Thanks for the info

Hawks are so slow - I have been plastering 30 year and my boys and I only use a 6-inch broad knife and a 20 x 5 trowel.... You should try that - you'll find it's more efficient and economical, also produce more from your man hours.

First lefty plasterer ive ever seen.

oops sorry mike read it further down in the comments thanks

great job mike nice and clean too, what size beads did you use ?

Nice job pal,

Is that silicone ?. Isn't it monocouche

what size beads you on mate?

Brilliant video mate

Fucks around with it far too much wouldn't like to see him do a large flank.

Where did you get that serrated darby from please. Great work also😊

😥 Promo>SM

You need to get a 800 mm nela spatchcock flattens over the mesh brilliantly

What size beads are you using mate?

Hi Mike, You make that look so easy, What would happen if you got half way across a wall and rain stopped play ?. Would you be able to carry on from where you left off or would you finish the complete wall even in the rain?, Thanks

Why not 3mm then 3mm. Show us you getting the top coat flat with hp12 Or are you using an easier product to top coat

How comes no primer? 😊

That darby work is not necessary mate,lay your base coat on and trowel in the mesh scratch top coat,

Why are you basecoating concrete blocks? Yeh scrim your stress points etc but correct me if im wrong but you can apply monocouche/ k rend straight onto that surface no base required unless obviously thermalight blocks, old brick etc then yeh base coat?

I bet you go home walking like Frankenstein's monster😂

Great job mate is that water u spraying the blocks with?

What are these shoes called pal

Who taught you how to get a trowel full of material off your handboard like that?

Looks great, enjoyed learning how you do the whole process. Thanks for uploading

Get a pump it will save your arms

How long to wait for the finish Coat with plaster?

Is this better than other type acrylic which you float with plastic trowel.ill be doing extension shortly timber frame with cement board..thanks nice job

Who scrapes fascia and soffit like that nice few scrapes on there . Just tape it up ffs

Great video, where could I get a Darby like that plz

Hi does that finish hold dirt becuse of finish with that steel float..is not acrylic smoother or whats the differerence and best..looks great finish.

Did you knock it up twice I always mix it then leave it for 20mins then re mix goes really creamy

Enjoyed that one Mike!!

Great video Mike, what size beads did you use for this system?

Nice one Mike.👌👏 Beats skimming every day.💯

Tidy job mate👌🏻

I try too 2nd pass before nit skins up. Just what I find easier

Nice Job Mike.

Nice job mate but if you do two passes straight away wet on wet then you don't have too worry about flattening or trying too keep enough thickness for your second pass. Also you won't have too worry about scraping back too first pass. I would personally have another spread with me going behind ruling I have done smaller areas on my own but just too be sure if have someone incase I start too loose it but still nice job also pain getting shut lines k rend is simple but can go wrong I think you would agree lol

In 43 yrs plastering ,best Darby on the market
